This is a very sad story. My favourite line is: “…at least he didn’t do anything terrible like fall or break a leg. We will all miss him very much.”

Yeah thank God he had the decency to die like a real horse and not one of those namby pamby wusses who would break a leg. It reminds me of the sad case of a horse who died last year. Can anyone remember the name? I think he was called King, but I may be wrong.
